NIONSON k CARPENTER'S

Grand Display for the HOIfdays-An
 Unusually Elegant StOck-The Array
 of Christmas SPecIalt1es.
 For many days past Monson & Carpenters dry goods establishment has been crowded with ladies and gentlemen looking for Christ mas goods among the large stock carried by this old and reliable firm, and it is safe to say that the many and courteous clerks in this establishment will have their hands full until after the holidays. It would be almost an impossibility to name the large assortment of goods this house has on hand, but it in- eluaes a splendid line of dress goods, cloaks, shawls, housekeepers' supplies, etc., besides gloves, jerseys and all kinds of fancy articles, whic the firm will dispose of during this week. This special Christmas display is very fine, embracing multitude of tasteful, at- tractive and desirable articles for gifts, which are admired by all and cannot but command large patronage.

Holly, M1stletoe, Christmas Greens,
 Cut Flowers, Cape Flowers, Wreaths,
 Etc.
 The display at Dickerman's, the florist, 659 Chapel street, crystallizes the Christmas sentiment and shows that this enterprising house is as usual alive to the fact that Christi mas is at our doors and that the people are preparing to adorn their homes with holly, mistletoe, Christmas trees, etc., and the churches likewise. There is great boom at Dickerman's this year, for MT. Dickerman has bought and shipped direct from the South 8 great supply of holly and English mistle toe, which will be sold at prices way below any hither to named in New Haven. Two carloads of Christmas trees, fine nursery stock, arrived last night; beautiful green trees that will be in great demand from the public. Cut flowers; a remarkably large stock, are selling at Dickerman's at astonish- ingly low prices. Of Florida roses large supply has just arrived. Crosses and wreaths of immortelle on sale in variety, and cut flowers for the Christmas holidays in any quantity, large or small. They have also made up to fill orders and for sale a great supply of Christmas evergreen wreathing or roping for home, hall and church decoration. The prospect is, judging from the orders re- ceived, that Christmas decorating will be on larger scale than usual this year.
